Without any cards having been exposed (live cards or mucked cards), and assuming you don't have ESP, would you ever fold a 9 high flush draw (four to the flush) on the flop in limit hold em'?

You don't need Sklansky for this. The 1 word answer is clearly "yes". You didn't specify that your hole cards were suited but I'll assume that you meant that since its obvious that there are times to fold a 9-high flushdraw on monotone flops.

Its easy enough to create a hypothetical situation where folding would be correct. Say the most insanely tight/passive player you've ever played against (1% PFR over thousands of hands) raises several limpers from the BB and the flop comes AKK with 2 of your suit and the SB leads and the BB raises.

That said you will very rarely if ever be folding a 4-flush on the flop in limit hold em. I can't remember ever doing it.

I still call in your hypothetical situation, 10000% of the time.

In limit holdem with a 2-3 blind structure, when in the small blind, is it ever correct to muck in lieu of completing?

David doesn't have the knowledge to asses that.

Of course he has. Let's see if he'll admit it. Or, let's see if he'll vehemently deny it. Both juicy.

Do you have concerns/thoughts about impending 'Peak Oil' production and its effects on society?
